Well I have officially gone twice as far as I did last year on this challenge. :)
Day 12
Alton riding his bike at the park. He WOULD not wear his bike "hat" because none of the other kids had one.
Day 13
Alton's first trip to Lowes with Pop Pop. He took his tools to the hardware store.
Look how little he looks!
Day 14
Early morning hot wheel races are good for the soul, don't you think?
Well I haven't posted any new layouts in six months.... Let's watch Alton get older this time shall we?
(By the way the credits for these layouts can be found in my gallery here.)
We are missing Day 6 because my camera’s memory card went wonky and deleted the photos I took Wednesday. I had a lot of pictures of Alton hoarding trucks at the Mom’s Club meeting.
Day 7
I got out for Mom's Night Out for Mom's Club, and I actually ice skated!
Here is my Tweet from the experience: "Ice. Fog. Tiny little slivers of metal attached to a moon boot. Beach. Jen. Which of these do not belong? For the record, I did not fall!"
Day 8
The new Pottery Barn Kids catalog arrives. Alton pours through it and asks that Santa bring him EVERY wooden car/truck/thing that moves on wheels in the catalog. (Which by the way, they don't sell in the catalog.) He also asks for the Fire truck bedding set. When we tell him Santa only comes once a year, he asks us to ask Amma....
I also think this is funny enough to note, When I told Travis that Alton was pouring through the catalog, he said, "Well now we don't need to have a girl. You already have someone to Pottery Barn shop with." Men.
Day 9
Alton is going to be a great reader like his mama and Uncle Robert. I often find him like this when he wakes up from his nap.
Day 10
Yes, that is my 2 1/2 year old on a bike. Yes he rides it. Yes, I am terrified of what this means. Pop Pop declares that the streets of Torrance will never be the same.
Day 11
Who doesn't love a good bubble bath?
Day 1
In the backyard....
Day 2
Trying to convince Daddy to hand over the keys. When asked where he was going, Alton said, "To buy more gucks and nummies." That is a direct quote.
Day 3
Alton's first pair of light up shoes. We got them shopping at the Tulare Outlets with Uncle "PatPat" and Auntie "Ann"
Day4
Supervising Uncle Pat Pat's sprinkler installation.
Day 4 still...
He is going to make a great big brother some day. He LOVED this little girl that was Patrick and Rae Ann's neighbor. He kept trying to keep Madeline out of the DVDs and CDs. So cute!
Day 4 continued...
We got home at 11 o'clock at night from Patrick and Rae Ann's. Alton was so tired that even though I was carrying him to his room, he felt it necessary to get down and crawl into his arm chair. I have no idea where he got my candle snuffer bag from. LOL
Day 5. Alton's "guck and vroom vroom" sheets from Amma and the construction quilt make their debut. Alton is quite pleased by this.
We will see how long this lasts....
